KVM: fix KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG for memory slots of unaligned size

2019-04-30T19:22:15Z

If a memory slot's size is not a multiple of 64 pages (256K), then the KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG API is unusable: clearing the final 64 pages either requires the requested page range to go beyond memslot->npages, or requires log->num_pages to be unaligned, and kvm_clear_dirty_log_protect requires log->num_pages to be both in range and aligned. To allow this case, allow log->num_pages not to be a multiple of 64 if it ends exactly on the last page of the slot.

mm: do not boost watermarks to avoid fragmentation for the DISCONTIG memory model

2019-04-26T16:18:05Z

Mikulas Patocka reported that commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs") "broke" memory management on parisc. The machine is not NUMA but the DISCONTIG model creates three pgdats even though it's a UMA machine for the following ranges 0) Start 0x0000000000000000 End 0x000000003fffffff Size 1024 MB 1) Start 0x0000000100000000 End 0x00000001bfdfffff Size 3070 MB 2) Start 0x0000004040000000 End 0x00000040ffffffff Size 3072 MB Mikulas reported: With the patch 1c30844d2, the kernel will incorrectly reclaim the first zone when it fills up, ignoring the fact that there are two completely free zones. Basiscally, it limits cache size to 1GiB. For example, if I run: # dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1M count=2048 - with the proper kernel, there should be "Buffers - 2GiB" when this command finishes. With the patch 1c30844d2, buffers will consume just 1GiB or slightly more, because the kernel was incorrectly reclaiming them. The page allocator and reclaim makes assumptions that pgdats really represent NUMA nodes and zones represent ranges and makes decisions on that basis. Watermark boosting for small pgdats leads to unexpected results even though this would have behaved reasonably on SPARSEMEM. DISCONTIG is essentially deprecated and even parisc plans to move to SPARSEMEM so there is no need to be fancy, this patch simply disables watermark boosting by default on DISCONTIGMEM.
